When I hire an engraver, copyist, I pay him/her and expect the files. We send them back & forth for revisions. and that can be by pdf file... but I expect the final final after I send in the check, to get the files. If the engraver is paid for her/his work, I cannot understand the desire not to give the composer the music files. I completely agree with you. A lot of this discussion reflects what I see with print & web designers. When freelance graphic designers do work, **typically** clients get the Photoshop and Illustrator files (with all the layers) so the project can be updated later, if need be. I have a friend who has spent a fortune on an E-Commerce store; and the designer is gouging him outrageous fees for the slightest updates; and will not release the source files. Great thread.
